Congratulations go to Mustafa Al-Ajmi (ME), Nathan Brignac (EE), Zachary Burchfield (EE), Jake Campesi (ME), Patrick Holden (ChE), David Lewis (ME), Katrina Taylor (ChE), and Matthew Walsh (ME)!!! They were part of an ME Capstone design team that took 4th place in the 2018 AIChE Southern Regional Chem-E Car Competition and 2nd place in the Chem-E Car Poster Session!!! By placing 4th in the car competition, they qualified to compete at the annual meeting in Pittsburgh this fall! They demonstrated the great ability of engineers to come together from diverse fields to accomplish their goals. Great job everyone!

This year marked the first time that Chemical Engineering students took part in the Mechanical Engineering Capstone Design series. Over the course of two semesters, John Flake advised eight students from ME, EE, and ChE to produce a chemical car.
